Nice classic hotel. Great locston. Really good breakfast included. Parts of it like the balconies and parking lot needed more love. Those aspects weren't 5 star.

Had a great stay at the Freithem for one night. The room was very comfortable, the food was delicious, and the staff was very kind and helpful. I really enjoyed sneaking up to the lookout and appreciated that they had non alcoholic beer on the dinner menu. (Also LOVE the Fjellheim soap! I'm hooked on the scent.) Looking forward to an opportunity to enjoy this space in the Summer!
